I only wish we had someone that would stand up to the Bush regime like Galloway did yesterday.
It's too bad the corporate media doesn't look for the truth anymore but instead regurgitates anything the administration spews out. Norm Coleman is an embarrassment to Minnesota and the United States.

5. high five, Oreo!
Here's mine:

I'm from Minnesota and find it ironic that a British member of Parliament is more truthful about my government and better reflects my views and values than my own senator.

2. Thanks. I sent them a one-line message, because I know they like brevity.
"It's sad that it took a Scotsman to tell America the truth about the Iraq war."

With the trouble America is in right now, we could use a few dozen George Galloways in our US Senate who speak the truth. Bravo performance by a true man of the people.

The testimony from Galloway was some of the most truthful words I have heard in years. The attempts by Coleman and this administration to destroy the UN and everyone else has met it's match.

Coleman acts as my Senator, but we sure miss his predecessor, the great Paul Wellstone. If anyone is ripping off Iraq it is Bush and Co.

Sincerely,

I am constantly disappointed by CNN's "news" programs and the slants you guys put on each day's reports. Galloway spoke truth to a bunch of power hungry political wanabes out to make a name for themselves. They are not bothered by the truth or fairness. Call names, smear and hurt people all in the quest of a political agenda. Galloway told the truth on a sham war, failed policies of the Bush administration and the bias of the news media in keeping the American public informed.

You are allowing misinformation to be spread via your network on a wide range of subjects, including but not limited to: nuclear option in the Senate, Iraq and the war, deficits, healthcare, and environment issues. CNN specifically shares in the responsibility in allowing this administration's election fraud and taking of a government. It is time you start cleaning up your mistakes.

It is a shame when our first amendment rights are better practiced by a citizen of a country we had to fight to get those rights than by the media that are ensured those rights in the Constitution. You guys are suppose to serve as a protection to democracy from partisan, lying regimes - act like it.

22. So far they only read
three messages from other countries (two praised him and one said "he's not off the hook"), but they said they "enjoyed reading all the messages" and encouraged people to keep sending them.

Their coverage was rather positive, a commentator (don't know who he was) said that a large faction of the American electorate probably responded with a "right on" to Galloway's testimony, and one of the "anchors" said that "many" today asked why the American media hadn't asked the questions Galloway raised yesterday. The British memo was also brought up. But it's CNN international, it's a little different to the US only version...
